I took a trip to Boundary Bay, just south of Vancouver, a few years back in search of snowy owls. I had just enough light left when this one took flight above the marsh, in search of an evening snack. Nikon D800 with Nikkor 200-400mm lens (at 400mm), ISO 1600, f/4 at 1/400th of a second.

——- The edge; anytime of day they’ll
——- Go to challenge wind and snow
——- In those years when lemings
——- Flow; as these powerful hunters
——- Contest we do have choice to root
——- As well for their hapless prey .

That is nice, Sean! I have yet to witness a snowy owl. Dare to be proud of that shot – it’s a keeper!
Very nice!
Such a nice shot, the perfect angle!
